Cameron Winter has announced his first live album, Live at Carnegie Hall, documenting the Geese frontman’s sold-out solo performance at the New York institution in December 2025.

Due October 9 via Partisan Records / Play It Again Sam, the album captures Winter alone at the piano in Carnegie Hall’s main auditorium, pulling songs from his 2024 solo debut Heavy Metal apart and putting them back together for a room very different from the stages he usually occupies with Geese.

Winter was just 23 when the performance took place, making him one of the youngest solo artists to headline Carnegie Hall’s main auditorium. Rather than treating the occasion as an excuse to make everything bigger, he went the other way: alone, hunched over the piano and at times sitting with his back to the audience.

The performance also included three previously unreleased compositions, offering another glimpse into a body of work that increasingly exists separately from Geese. Heavy Metal established Winter as a songwriter capable of stepping well outside the framework of his band, with songs that can be strange, funny, uncomfortable and unexpectedly affecting, sometimes within the space of a few lines.

His solo career has gathered momentum remarkably quickly, but Australian audiences have also had the chance to see him in his other natural habitat. Backseat Mafia caught Winter fronting Geese at Laneway Festival earlier this year, where the full band setting provided quite a contrast to the solitary figure preserved on Live at Carnegie Hall.

Winter has been Geese’s lead vocalist and principal songwriter since the band formed in 2016, but Heavy Metal revealed another side to his writing. The Carnegie Hall recording now catches those songs in an even more exposed form, with little standing between Winter, his piano and the audience.

Carnegie Hall can carry enough history to swallow a young performer whole. Winter’s response appears to have been characteristically contrary: turn his back on the room, sit at the piano and play the songs his own way.

Live at Carnegie Hall arrives October 9 and will be available digitally, on CD and vinyl.
